Do you think we can test different demo versions for survey at FAD ? 12:39:19 maybe not amongst Devconf attendees, but atleast FAD attendees and other people involved with this(like you/Council..) - if they have time 12:39:47 o/ Rhea 12:40:30 jonatoni, Rhea your inputs are welcome too ^^ 12:40:43 * bexelbie plans to be present at the FAD as much as possible 12:40:53 bee2502, let's see what the situation is on the ground 12:41:01 bee2502 yep, sorry for being late about this 12:41:32 jonatoni bexelbie ok :) 12:42:28 #agreed wait for marina's response of Fedora Diversity Survey questions, possibly hack on the final Questions at Diversity FAD in person. 12:43:12 I wanted to ask if there are plans for saturday or friday evening 12:43:46 bexelbie : can you forward me marina's mail when you get it ? If it does not arrive to diversity list that is.. 12:43:57 bee2502, sure 12:44:05 I presume it will go to the list though or be in the ticket 12:44:07 but yeah 12:44:20 Rhea : we are going to discuss on that in a few :) 12:44:25 bexelbie thanks :) 12:44:28 * bee2502 jonatoni Rhea Amita reply to bee2502's mail 12:44:57 guys, please do this soon - before FAD. A small reply is ok too. 12:45:08 yep 12:45:14 #action jonatoni Rhea Amita reply to bee2502's mail on diversity list re:FAD 12:46:17 okay, a few things next -- I am going to go through the diversity FAD wiki page if we need to work on anything not covered in meetings 12:46:39 #link Diversity FAD 2017 : https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAD_Diversity_2017 12:47:42 the page needs an update. 12:47:58 jonatoni and I can work on it in the upcoming hacksession. 12:48:09 yep sure 12:48:21 #action bee2502 and jonatoni update the diversity FAD wiki page. 12:48:46 there are a few things on planning prerequisites on the wiki page 12:48:53 * bee2502 : Plan and arrange small social event for team (e.g. dinner or small trip to local venue or attraction) 12:49:00 Rhea ^ 12:50:08 jonatoni, bexelbie - Is this possible ? Or should we just merge it with DevConf social dinner ? Any pre-arrangements which need to be done ? 12:50:38 bee2502, you'll need to check with Chris Ward on whether access to the social for devconf requires a ticket or something 12:50:42 it may be limited by headcount 12:51:11 Arranging a dinner is fine, imho. Taking a day or half-day team building needs justification before being scheduled on Fedora money, imho 12:51:23 but dinner is easy, we have a food budget 12:51:30 people have to eat during FADs 12:51:38 and frankly eating as a group makes reimbursements much easier 12:51:39 :D 12:52:53 Rhea, would you like to take up the responsibility for this ? 12:53:34 yes thats what i wanted toask 12:54:03 bexelbie, ok thanks a lot. I can can check with Chris Ward regarding access to devconf social dinner. 12:54:59 Rhea - ok, I will assign the action item with you and we can co-ordinate regarding the dates/times :) 12:55:06 s/with/to 12:55:29 okay 12:55:33 #action bee2502 follow up with Chris Ward regarding access to devconf social dinner for FAD attendees. 12:56:16 #action Rhea Plan and arrange small social event for team preferably, dinner 12:56:26 .hello amsharma 12:56:28 Amita: amsharma 'Amita Sharma' 12:56:40 sorry for the delay gals, I was driving 12:56:51 * Rhea waves 12:56:53 #action bee2502 and Rhea coordinate regarding the final date and time. 12:56:57 Amita o/ 12:57:06 hi bee2502 12:57:16 cool and thanks for chairing :) 12:57:27 * bee2502 : Create proposal ticket in Fedora Council Trac NO LATER THAN OCTOBER 10 12:57:39 Obviously, this is done. Need to update wiki 12:57:54 * bee2502 : Begin framing scope of survey / marketing campaign 12:58:33 * bexelbie has to step away 12:58:34 I think we can do this in-person during the FAD. 12:58:39 +1 12:59:08 jonatoni Rhea - what do you think ? 12:59:49 is there a meeting after us ? we might get extended for a bit.. 13:00:11 Btw I just talked with Chris, he said that we will have charging points but not white board.
